@Midkiff87: I'm not able to reproduce this myself, though I'll note that Ctrl + Shift + PrintScr yields a full desktop screenshot for me, rather than just a screenshot of 1Password. To screenshot just 1Password, I must press Alt + PrintScr. If you had this shortcut (almost) right, you could definitely have accidentally revealed your password in the process as Ctrl + Alt will reveal your password until you release those keys, so Ctrl + Alt + PrintScr would most certainly capture a revealed password. Any chance that's what you did? If so, does just using Alt + PrintScr allow taking a screenshot without revealing your password?

@Midkiff87: Don't worry about it at all. I don't know that we can show such a warning, but I must say that I'm a total twit with keyboard shortcuts and most certainly could have made the same mistake had I not Googled it when the one you noted didn't work as described. Based on said Google, I anticipate success for you, but do let me know if I'm wrong. And, of course, I'm happy to pass your feedback along to the team whether or not we can show a warning. For the moment, I'd advise against taking screenshots of active data in 1Password, regardless of any warnings available. I used test data myself for ... well, testing ... precisely because that's data that's leaving 1Password and in these cases I'd rather be safe than sorry.

@bundtkate, Now that I'm at my PC, I can confirm that Alt + PrintScr does indeed work without revealing the password.

I seem to remember that alt + PrintScr didn't work right (for something else). I think it used to capture your whole monitor (but not any others) whereas ctrl + alt + PrintScr would capture just the active window.

Either way, I would mark this feature report as closed, but I can't edit the post. Thanks for the help.
